Honestly I don't even know what the "top 10" is or how its measured and have never met anyone in my life who listened to top 10 stuff. It's always HR office radio, mechanic radio, the bar, club, etc. Even the most normal people find stuff they like on youtube and listen to that. Even if the AI music is extremely good, it's just missing the fact that it was made by a person, which changes the experience entirely. I think we're more likely to see musicians and those top10 artists leverage AI without explicitly saying so. I expect we will have a daft punk moment where someone is using exclusively AI and later unmasks that it was all AI, and as soon as that happens the music is disconnected. Same with AI art. I can see something and be duped and go "oh wow!!!" and as soon as I know it's AI the caring leaves my body completely and reverence and interest is lost.

I love this sentiment about "top 10" radio. If only it was so. That's the stuff that's on everywhere, all the time. Grocery stores, cafes, etc etc. hell, I listen to it on YouTube. It's like junk food. It's bad, it's good. It's better than AI, even this incredible mindblowing suno thing. Production value counts.

  Will it be better than AI six months from now, that’s the question. My money is on “no”.

    At least the classical world is safe. They want no part in AI.

      I think it's a lot better at classical, orchestral, and instrumental music than it is at anything requiring vocalization. I created this in less than 20 minutes: https://app.suno.ai/song/eb93c25b-bdbe-4c9f-8e03-66e9479c869b/ https://app.suno.ai/song/eb93c25b-bdbe-4c9f-8e03-66e9479c869... I need to stem it, fix it up a bit, and remix for stereo in a DAW but it's much better than I expected for my first ever piece of music. Obviously it'd take a lot of work to create a Hans Zimmer level OST from the tool but IMO it wouldn't feel out of place on a Ludovico Einaudi album or on some Spotify or Pandora classical radio.

        That's actually a very good piece. Like something I'd hear on late night Paradise Radio. If I was creating an indie movie on no budget I'd be all over this technology for the soundtrack. I don't think musicians and composers are going to disappear as a consequence of this technology, in the same way that theatre actors were not made obsolete by film. What I do think is that a whole new category of professionals will be created - musicians and composers who get paid to train AI models. I bet it will pay better then the laughable amounts that are streaming royalties.

      At some point in the future, wanting no part in AI-generated content is going to be like that old Onion headline. "Area Man Constantly Mentioning That He Doesn't Even Own A Television".

  Quality isn’t the only factor though. Music made by people has copyright which means grocery stores and coffee shops have to pay a license fee. There’s certainly a point where this synthetic music gets good enough to replace the elevator music Muzak crap that they have to pay $2000 to license.
